Did you know that the founders of the Great White Brotherhood
came form Venus and that many of the branches of the GWB
around the planet were founded by spiritual adepts associated with
the serpent?

I came to that startling realization some years ago
during a journey to Peru.

In Peru I had the good fortune to meet a Peruvian wise man, Anton
Ponce de Leon Paiva and become initiated into his esoteric
organization,
the Brotherhood of the Sun, an
Andean branch of the Great White Brotherhood. Anton was asked to
found this organization by sages or Elders living in a hidden
village within the Andes.

Sister Thedra and Anton
Ponce de Leon

The Elders are direct descendants of the
Incas and high priests of the Incan Empire and have lived in the
secret village since the downfall of that illustrious civilization.
Anton's blind-folded journey to the hidden village and the Elders he
encountered there is recounted in his books The Wisdom of the
Ancient ONE and In Search of the Wise ONE.

Once at the hidden village, Anton was initiated into the Intic
Churincuna, the Solar Brotherhood, which had existed since the
time of Lemuria, the legendary continent of the Pacific,
which is now mostly at the bottom of the Pacific Ocean.

The Solar
Brotherhood was the first manifestation of the "Great White
Brotherhood" on Earth (you will find that all ancient
civilizations were Sun worshippers and that the early adepts
established headquarters associated with the Sun, such as Heliopolis
in Egypt).

The Solar Brotherhood was first brought to Earth from
Venus by adepts known as the Kumaras, a name which has the
meaning of "androgenous Serpents." You can find references to
the Kumaras in the Hindu Puranas where they are described as
being the first teachers of Yoga on the planet.

Current branches of
the Great White Brotherhood throughout the globe, such as the Theosophists and the
Summit Lighthouse, refer to the Kumaras as their
beloved founders. These organizations also claim that one Kumara,
Sanat Kumara, has remained on Earth for thousands of years to
oversee the workings of the GWB from Shamballa, his headquarters in
the Gobi Desert.

During his week-long stay at the hidden village, Anton learned from
the Elders that the Intic Churincuna was brought to the Andes by a Lemurian sage called
Aramu or Amaru (the
Serpent), Muru.

Apparently there had been a special
convocation on Lemuria just before the continent's fabled
destruction and Aramu Muru and other "Serpents" were
elected to take the records and power objects of the Kumara/Solar
Brotherhood to various parts of the world.

Those who later became
the
Nagas (Serpents in Sanscrit) in India, the Lung
Dragons of China, and the Amarus in Peru, were elected to
take the ancient wisdom to their respective countries. Later, a
similar convocation would occur on
Atlantis with certain serpent
masters of that land chosen to take the Atlantean records and
teachings to the pan-Atlantic territories.

It is interesting to note that wherever
the Lemurian or Atlantean serpents established branches of
the GWB they built temples aligned with Venus and the planet
itself became associated with saviors and immortals.

The immortal
Osiris of Egypt, the savior Queztlcoatl of Mexico, and
the World Teacher Jesus Christ, were intimately associated
with Venus.

When Aramu Muru finally arrived in the Andes, he established
both the Solar Brotherhood, as well as
the
Brotherhood of the Seven Rays, thereby grounding the
infinite light of the Solar Spirit in his new land.

The headquarters
of the Brotherhood of the Seven Rays became A hidden monastery in
the Andes, the Monastery of the Seven Rays, was built as the heaquarters of the Brotherhood of the Seven Rays and served as both
a storehouse for Lemurian power objects and as a school for the
dispensation of the sacred Lemurian teachings.

In recent times proof of the existence of the Monastery of the
Seven Rays has come from a small group who traveled to the
monastery in the 1960s. George Hunt Williamson (Brother
Philip), author of
Secret of the Andes, later interviewed the members of this party
to write his book about the abbey.

One women of the group, Sister
Thedra, spent five years at the abbey undergoing intensive
spiritual training and initiations.

She had been sent there by Jesus Christ who had physically appeared to her and
spontaneously cured her of cancer. He introduced himself to her by
his true, esoteric name, "Sananda Kumara," thereby revealing
his affiliation with the Venusian founders of the Great White and
Solar Brotherhoods.

When Thedra eventually left Peru, she traveled
to Mt. Shasta in California and founded the Association of
Sananda and Sanat Kumara. Through the work of Sister Thedra
(animation left) and her organization the Kumaras have disseminated information
concerning their history and the coming Earth changes.

But back to the story... Eventually Aramu Muru became the
first priest king of the Incas and was thereafter known among his
adopted people as Manco Kapac. Ka-pac means "spiritually
wealthy" or "Serpent Wisdom" (many of the great Serpents of
the GWB have denoted their serpent wisdom by including the K
sound in their names, such as Kumara, Christ
(pronounced Krist), Krishna, Kukulcan).

Following his
coronation, Manco Kapac took one of the power objects stored
within the Monastery of the Seven Rays, the great Solar Disc, and
hung it within the main temple of the Incas, the Intiwasi, which was
built in Cuzco, Peru.

This Solar Disc had previously hung within an
important temple of the Solar Brotherhood on Lemuria and was an
important symbol of the organization. By hanging it within the
Intiwasi, Manco officially established the Solar Brotherhood in
Peru. Later, when the Spanish invaded Peru, the Solar Disc was
returned to the Monastery of the Seven Rays for safekeeping.

Before and after building the city of Cusco, capital of the Incan
Empire, Manco Kapac and the Kapac Cuna, members of the
Solar Brotherhood from Lemuria who arrived in the Andes at about the
same time Aramu did, built many megalithic temples in Peru, such as
those at Tiahuanaco, Sacsayhuaman, Ollantaytambo, and Machu Picchu.
These became contact points for visiting Venusians and members of
the Solar and Great White Brotherhoods on Earth.

The wisdom of the Solar Brotherhood was eventually passed down
through the lineages of Inca priest kings and high priests of Peru.
Throughout their history, the Incan kings were always associated
with the serpent and wore bracelets and anklets of slithering
serpents to reveal their affiliation. Some monarchs included the
Quechuan name for serpent, Amaru, within their royal
titles, such as the Inca Tupac Amaru.

Before the complete destruction of the Incas by the Spanish, the
high priests of the Incan Solar Brotherhood escaped to a
hidden village in the Andes where they carefully preserved the
wisdom of their ancient organization. For many years this wisdom was
kept secret until Anton was invited to visit.

He was instructed to
take the history and teachings of the Solar Brotherhood into the
outer world and found an extension or "outer retreat" of the
organization.

This outer retreat, now known as
Samana Wasi, became located in the
Sacred Valley of the Incas. It is both the headquarters of the
Brotherhood of the Sun as well as a home for abandoned children and
old people.

Currently the Elders of the hidden village are in close
contact with many of the planetary and galactic brotherhoods on
Earth and throughout the universe.
